chmod not done inside chroot

Ran across an issue when a chmod is done on a directory in a chroot environment that is a symbolic link. In short, it will NOT chmod the desired chroot file or directory but will instead do it to the file or directory in the base IFS. Yikes.

Below is the tested fix.

##Looking for input to determine if this has any ramifications I am not thinking of.
